ChatGPT is a superpower.

But most people don't know how to unlock its full potential.

Here are 10 ChatGPT prompts so powerful and useful, they feel illegal to use: Image
1. Learn anything from a 20-year expert even if you're clueless

"Pretend you are an expert with 20 years of experience in {industry/topic}. Break down the core principles a total beginner must understand. Use analogies, step-by-step logic, and simplify everything like I’m 5."
2. Brutally honest thought partner to sharpen your thinking

"Act as my personal thought partner. I’ll describe {my idea/problem}, and I want you to question every assumption, point out blind spots, and help me evolve it into something 10x better."
3. Copywriting that actually converts

"You're a world-class copywriter. Rewrite this {landing page/sales pitch/email} to convert better. Make it punchy, concise, and persuasive. Use proven frameworks like PAS or AIDA. Here’s the original: {paste it}."
4. Psychoanalyze yourself like a Nobel psychologist would

"Act like a Nobel-winning psychologist. Analyze my behavior pattern: {describe it}. What’s likely causing it? What mindset shifts, habits, or actions would help me overcome it?"
5. Startup roadmap from idea to $10k revenue

"Be my startup mentor. I have this idea: {idea}. Help me refine it, validate the market, uncover monetization options, and outline a roadmap from MVP to first $10k in revenue."
6. Learn hard topics like you're 10 and actually remember them

"Teach me {any complex skill or topic} like I’m 10 years old. Use simple language, metaphors, and examples. After each explanation, quiz me to check my understanding and reinforce learning."
7. Turn rough notes into viral content

"You’re my ghostwriter. Turn this rough bullet outline into a high-impact {LinkedIn post / Twitter thread / Medium article}. Keep it engaging, clear, and tailored to {target audience}. Here’s my outline: {insert}" Image
8. Life stuck? Get uncomfortable truths + a real plan

"Act like my life coach. I feel stuck because {describe situation}. Ask me 5 uncomfortable questions to uncover the root issue. Then give me a brutally honest action plan to move forward." Image
9. Investor-style teardown of your startup idea

"You’re a brutally honest investor. Pitch: {insert startup idea}. Tear it apart. What’s flawed? What’s promising? What’s missing? Rate it on market, product, and founder fit. No fluff just real feedback." Image
10. A 30-day action plan to achieve any goal

"I need a personal strategy. Goal: {your goal}. Give me a 30-day plan. Break it down by week. Include specific actions, milestones, and habits. Make it realistic but challenging enough to grow." Image
Prompts like these make me feel like I’ve hired a world-class coach, strategist, and writer for free.

A new study just exposed a hidden truth about LLMs:

Your LLM is a black box.

You don’t understand how it works and neither do its creators.

Here’s what they found ↓ Image
Everyone talks about "understanding AI."

But here’s the truth:

You can’t open the black box.

You can only work around it.

Even the engineers can’t explain why a model gave you that output. Image
The paper argues:

Stop obsessing over what AI is.
Start asking what AI does.

Because most AI systems are judged not by logic, but by how much we trust their output. Image

RIP social media marketers.

You can now use any LLM like ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Mistral, or DeepSeek to generate audience research, strategy plans, trend analysis, viral hooks, and full content calendars.

Here’s the exact prompt we use personally to automate your work: Image
We had social media marketers.

But we fired them 3 months ago.
They were slow.
They couldn’t keep up with trends.
Everything took forever.

So, we hired the LLMs.

We use them for:

- content strategy
- viral hook generation
- 30-day content calendars

And more.
Here's the mega prompt we use:

"You are now my expert social media marketing assistant. Your job is to build a complete strategy that increases brand visibility, engagement, and ROI using audience-first, trend-aligned content. Do the following in order:

1. Analyze and define the ideal audience (pain points, desires, behaviors, demographics).
2. Generate a full social media strategy across Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn, and X.
3. Identify current platform-specific trends I should tap into.
4. Create 5 viral hook ideas tailored to my niche and audience psychology.
5. Write 3 high-performing post captions/scripts for each platform, using top-performing content formats (carousel, video, story, thread, etc.).
6. Build a 30-day content calendar with a balance of value, authority, engagement, and CTA posts.
7. Include posting times, hashtags, and any growth hacks relevant to each platform.

Output all work in clearly labeled sections:








My niche/brand: [INSERT NICHE OR PRODUCT HERE]"Image
